Outreach #23 (Backpack Outreach)

A couple of weeks ago our church handed out backpacks to the congregation to fill with school supplies for kids that live in a low-income area of Aurora. My husband and I had so much fun buying all of the supplies to fill the bag up with. We even bought a gift card to McDonald’s for our kid. Ever since we have dropped the bag off, we have thought and prayed for the child who received that bag.

It has to be rough to be in school these days! The lack of morals and disrespect for God in our school’s today is absolutely heart breaking!! All we can do is get on our knees and pray, and that’s exactly what I am going to do!

“But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.”
